Notice

Who is this person, always showing their smile?
Or at least attempting to show it, as long as someone is watching, as long as it makes a difference.

Sometimes I can see it, when it seems noone is watching and the smile fades, the subtle sensation of great devestation sets in for a moment before they realise that someones eye is set upon them.

Sometimes it seems as though it's their own glimpse that reminds them to smile, as if to say "make a difference to yourself too please"

But it doesn't seem real if thats the case.

It was a long while I used to see that face. I still do at times, as my enjoyable flight flickers towards a previous setting.

Why does it spark thought, is it because I enjoy the idea of a person trying to initiate change through a smile?

Or is it because I know that the only way you learn to care like that is when you've hurt.

Maybe thats not true, maybe someone else learned to be kind of heart before suffering.

The way this world looks right now I highly doubt that.
